LINE: Monster Rancher will have monsters from Monster Rancher and Monster Rancher 2. However, they will appear in a new visual style as the game will feature new graphics. Additionally, players will have access to new features, such as the option to send bred monsters out on expeditions. Another feature includes the ability to create teams of monsters and participate in ranked battles. One thing that will remain the same is the training system from previous Monster Rancher titles. Players will need to finely balance just how much they push or pamper their monsters to unleash their true potential.

You can watch the announcement trailer below.

Koei Tecmo released Monster Rancher 1 & 2 DX on the Nintendo Switch, PC, and iOS devices. An Android version is also available exclusively in Japan. The game was originally released in Japan, and then subsequently arrived in North America and Europe. It has received free and paid DLC content.
